Analyzing genotype-by-environment interaction using curvilinear regression
Scientia Agricola, 2012 In the context of multi-environment trials, where a series of experiments is conducted across different environmental conditions, the analysis of the structure of genotype-by-environment interaction is an important topic.

Genotype by Environment Interaction in Adolescents’ Cognitive Aptitude [PDF]
Behavior Genetics, 2006 In a replication of Turkheimer, Haley, Waldron, D'Onofrio, Gottesman II (2003, Socioeconomic status modifies heritability of IQ in young children. Psychological Science, 14:623-628), we investigate genotype-environment (G x E) interaction in the cognitive aptitude of 839 twin pairs who completed the National Merit Scholastic Qualifying Test in 1962 ...

Use of ridge regression for the prediction of early growth performance in crossbred calves
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2007 The problem of multicollinearity in regression analysis was studied. Ridge regression (RR) techniques were used to estimate parameters affecting the performance of crossbred calves raised in tropical and subtropical regions by a model including additive,

Genotype-by-environment interactions affecting heterosis in maize
PLOS ONE, 2017 ABSTRACT The environment can influence heterosis, the phenomena in which the offspring of two inbred parents exhibits phenotypic performance beyond the inbred parents for specific traits. In this study we measured 25 traits in a set of 47 maize hybrids and their inbred parents grown in 16 different environments, and each had varying ...

Genotype by environment interactions for growth in Red Angus [PDF]
Journal of Animal Science, 2017 Accuracy of sire selection is limited by how well animals are characterized for their environment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of genotype × environment interactions (G×E) for birth weight (BiW) and weaning weight (WW) for Red Angus in the United States. Adjusted weights were provided by the Red Angus Association of America.
